Winder Type: Manual friction-drive unit

Overview:

The Bobbin Winder (Part #82090) is an industrial-grade winding assembly designed for specialized "large bobbin" sewing machines. It is a complete mechanical unit that facilitates the winding of thread onto high-capacity bobbins while the machine is in operation. Built for professional leather repair and cobbler work, this bobbin winder delivers reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.

Guaranteed Machine Compatibility:

This part is specifically engineered for the Singer 29K Series industrial shoe patcher (cobbler) machines used for leather repair:

Singer 29K72: This is the primary model for this part; it is a long-arm "boot patcher" industrial machine with a 17-½ inch arm designed for stitching high-top boots and golf bags.

Singer 29K Series: Fits other variants in the 29K class that are equipped to use large bobbins, including the 29K71 and 29K73, provided they have the large-capacity hook assembly.

Singer 29U Series: Compatible with models such as the 29U171, which often share parts with the 29K class.

Key Identification Features:

If you are unsure if this part fits your machine, check the following specifications:

Bobbin Style: This winder is for Large Bobbins (typically Part #82552). It will NOT fit machines using the standard "small" patcher bobbins (Part #8604). For small-bobbin Singer 29K models, you need Part #82087 instead.

Winder Type: It is a manual friction-drive unit that mounts to the machine's arm and engages with the handwheel.

Arm Length: It is most commonly found on the 17-½ inch long-arm models (like the 29K72) designed for stitching high-top boots and golf bags.

Function and Operation:

As a manual industrial winder, it serves several key roles in professional leatherwork:

Friction-Driven Operation: The winder operates by being pushed against the machine's handwheel to engage rotation. This simple, reliable mechanism has been proven in industrial settings for decades.

Independent Winding: Allows for bobbins to be filled without unthreading the main needle, saving valuable time during professional leatherwork. You can wind a fresh bobbin while keeping your current project threaded and ready to go.

Adjustable Stopper: Features a built-in stopper that can be adjusted to control exactly how much thread is wound before the mechanism automatically clicks and disengages. This prevents overfilling and ensures consistent bobbin tension.

Industrial-Grade Construction: Built to withstand the demands of professional cobbler shops and leather repair businesses. This is a complete mechanical unit, ready to install and put to work.

Applications:

Perfect for professional leather repair, cobbler work, industrial shoe patching, high-top boot construction, golf bag manufacturing, and any heavy-duty leatherwork requiring large-capacity bobbins.

Installation:

This is a complete bobbin winder assembly that mounts to your Singer 29K machine's arm. The friction-drive design engages with your machine's handwheel for reliable operation.
